Waterfront Place Spirals - photo 1146

900 West Cordova St, Vancouver

This apparently interactive water installation has many unique features. The most prominent is its multiple levels, it resembles a tiered wedding cake, down which water cascades. The tiers sprial around and the water seems to be spinning from top to bottom. However, only a thin layer of water tcollects on each tier, at most only about 2cm so, as photos below illustrate, kids can climb on the fountain. Take care though, the surface could be slippery!
